This is Mark Webber tackling Istanbul Park’s four-apexed Turn 8 during a simulator run. The on-screen accelerometer shows that he’s subjected to a lateral acceleration of 4.7 g for his entire 6-second journey through the corner’s four apices.

With Istanbul Park’s likely disappearance from the Formula One calendar after this season, fans of high-g corners will have to migrate from Istanbul to Austin, where the Circuit of the Americas—set to host the US Grand Prix from 2012 on, and designed, like Istanbul Park, by Hermann Tilke—will feature a reproduction of Turn 8 in the shape of Turns 16, 17, and 18.
